Pantheism is a philosophical and spiritual belief that equates God with the universe and everything in it. It suggests that the divine is present in all aspects of nature and existence, rejecting the idea of a personal, anthropomorphic deity. Instead, pantheists view the universe itself as a manifestation of the divine. This belief system emphasizes the interconnectedness of all things, promoting a sense of unity and reverence for nature. Pantheism can be found in various cultures and religions, influencing movements such as Transcendentalism and Buddhism, which also highlight the importance of nature and the cosmos.
